oh ok. someone told me "I miss you stax".
babbelbekkie Aug 10, 2004:
From Afrikaans to English more context would be needed too... preferably the sentence in which it was used.
Non-ProZ.com (asker) Aug 10, 2004:
I forgot, it should have been from afrikaan to english
Will Matter Aug 10, 2004:
Can you provide more context? This is not an English word, we need more information.

hope / baie

So it is English-Afrikaans after all. "Stax" is "stack", i.e. lots.

Lots is "baie" in Afrikaans, of "hope" if you want to keep it "slangy"
